European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - April 01, 1963, Darmstadt, Hesse Monday april 1, 1963 the stars and stripes Page 21 new faces May provide pirates with necessities to capture 63 Pennant by Leo a Peterson fort Myers. Fla. Turd the Pittsburgh pirates have made some wholesale changes for the first time since they won the Pennant in i960 and manager Danny Murtough is confident the team is on . And. He Points out it does t have to go up very much to win in 1963 for while the club finished fourth last season it was Only eight game Back. Not that to is claiming the Pennant you Don t do that in a league As Tough As this one he explains. And while t know our team is improved i have no Way of knowing How much ii any the other clubs in the league have he figures the pirates even with Vern Law still a question have belter pitching this year with the addition of Don Cardwell and Don sch Tell better catching with Jim pallor on to Loam wit hand Smoky Burgess More Speed at least As much Power a lost year. But let s face it he adds we Art not a Power team. Our runs Are going to come hard with singles and doubles for we Lack what they Call the consistent Ion bomb. However Good pitching and Good defense can make up for that. The pirates lost three fourths of their 1060 championship infield when they traded away first base Man Dick Stuart to the red Soto get Schwatlo and Fagliarone shortstop Dick Groat to the cardinals for Cardwell and into elder Julio Gotay and third baseman Don Hook to the Phillies for out fielder Ted Savage. With that new blood though the pirates chances May Well hinge on How Rookie Bob Bailey does at third base. They dealt Way Hook one of the better Danny Multan go. Better pitching around third basemen in the league Only because they were sure the go year b Alley could fill the Bill. Bailey hit .299 with Columbus with 38 Home runs and 108 runs batted in. In 14 games with the pirates a the tall end of the season he batted Only .167. Originally Murtaugh planned on an infield of Donn Clendenon first Bui mox mroskl at second Dick Schotfeld at Short and Bailey a thaw the seventh of 10 dispatches on Tow ism Prospect of the american and National league by in club. Tomorrow the Ixo Angel Angels and the Cincinnati Rwy earns make trims cubs gain Pitcher in Colt Trade third. But Rookie liver Stargell up from Columbus where he bait .276 last year could beat out Clendenon if he continues to Pound the Ball As he has in exhibition game thus for. Schofield who has been knocking around the majors As an it lilt Man since 1953, is getting his first shot As a regular. He is Only 2a Lis Jurosky of course. Is fixture at second. The Veteran Juhnik Logan and Gotay will be the infield Clemente in right and Bui Verdon in Center Are sure their Outfield posts but Savage could beat out Bob Skinner for theft fled Job. Storgel is sure to be kept because he can play the Outfield As Well As first , 7-16 with the cubs last season and who then we traded to in cardinals and sent on to tha pirates Schwall. 9-15 with the red sox Bob Friend o8-h and Joe Gibbon 3-4who we Hurt lot of last season flaunt to be the top four starters. Murtaugh thinks he might have three More starters in bar Francis Timal a Csc a 15-10 and Bob Vole 2-2. The bullpen will be headed by Little Elroy Faco 8-7 that leaves Harvey Haddix 9-6tom Sturdivant 9-5 and two rookies. Bob Priddy. A 10-game Winner at Columbus and Tom Butters who won six at Asheville . Battling for the other pitching still i a question Mark. He won 20 in 1960, then came up with a sore Arm and won Only three game in 1961, but came Back to win 10 last season. But his Arm went bad again and As of now Murtaugh is not counting on he can not hit with Burgess Paella Ron. A better defensive Man May win the no. 1 catching berth. Besides Smoky who swings a powerful Bat is 36 and would like More rest than last Matason when he caught in 103 Gomes. If Bailey Mokes it As big As the pirate brass thinks he will that operate Murtaugh talks about could be for the marbles. From Presa dispatches the Chicago cubs selected Harold Haydel an 18-year-old right handed Pitcher from the Fourton roster to Complete five Sloyer Trade Between the two club earlier in the week.

They also have possibly the finest around player in the league in Al Kallner. And they seem to Hove the Essary pitching particularly since Jim sunning Hank Aguirre Don Mossl and reliever Terry Fox Al have hurled brilliantly this Spring. Then what s stopping them injuries killed us last your Schyf Flag says. Everyone knows what Frank L�ry Means to us and when we lost him we lost our bes Pitcher. Kallner was hitting .345 when he broke his Collarbone on May 26. Take a couple of players like Lary and Kallner away Romany Ball club and see How Well it Lary. N 23-Gamo Winner in 1961,won Only two last year. He Haa " Iio ucar ahead been working his Way Back int shape gradually this Spring and Palms his Arm is right seems better than Ever although the tigers would be sniffled o see him duplicate his 94 runs batted in 29 homers and .304 butting verage of last year. Al however believes he can improve on three those totals and they nil agree Ullh him Down in the dugouts. Scheffling hns been heartened by a number of developments this prong. For one there has been the spectacular third base Pluy of Bubba Phillips acquired rom the Cleveland indians. Another hns been the marked improvement of first baseman Norm Cash who won the . Balling Idle in 1961 with a .361 Mark but flopped to 243 Insl year. And the third encouraging item has been the tigers pitching this Spring. Mossl who won 11 games and lost 13 last year and Aguirre who had a 16-8 record have pitched sensationally. Fox bothered by Arm rouble last season has been right up there with them and undoubtedly will be the club s chief an Effort to strengthen their catching the tigers obtained big Gus Orlandos from the orioles during the Winter and although the 32-year-old Veteran who unite a feeble Iso last year appears to have made a Complete readjustment he still May find himself behind Rookie Bui 21-Ycnr-old Freehan. Signed for a Bonus in excess of �1uu.ooo, batted .283 for Denver last year and apparently has designs on the tigers first string catching Job. Mike Roarke will be kept anchors an infield that has Dick a Callue .363 at second base Chaco Fernandez 40 at shortstop and Phillips j58 at hns been working former second baseman Jake Wood at shortstop. Veteran Vic Welz who hit .324 mostly As a Pinch hitter lost year will be used in that same capacity and probably will till la occasionally for Cash at first base. Few Outfield have More sock in them than Detroit s with Kallner in right Flold. Rocky colavito in left Leld and Bui Bruton in had 113 Bis and 37 homers last season and Bruton knocked in 74 runs while belting 16 Whalley Hanoi and Bubba Morion will be the Reserve outfielders. Three youngsters Purnal Goldy Frank Kostro and Mickey Stanley Are scrambling for the sixth 19-10. Lary. Aguirre and Moss will be the four regular starting pitchers Ullh Paul Fylack 110-7phu Regan 114 and maybe even Bob Anderson also taking starting turns. Anderson we acquired from the cubs with whom he had a 2-7 record last season and if he does t make ii As a starter hell join Fox in the bullpen. Bob Dustal owner of a 12-8 record with Denver is another to Noble reliever after which Schyf Flag will have to make up his mind on such other pitchers As Howie Koplitz 3-0 Doug Gallagher 9-5 with Denver Dick Egin 17-11 with Hawaii and Bill Paul. 6-3 with Knouville. Even with this Talent the tigers Are a perplexing Ball club. One Day they look like a million dollars the next Day like 10 cents. If they con put enough Good Days together though the Yankee could be in for it Long overdue Shock. Columbia tops Navy for Mcaa fencing title air Force Academy Colo.
